Pidgins and creoles
Pidgin Languages
Idiomas Pidgin
A pidgin is a system of communication which has grown up among people who do not share a common language, but who want to talk to each other, for trading or other reasons. Pidgins have been variously called ‘makeshift’, ‘marginal’, or ‘mixed’ languages.
Um pidgin é um sistema de comunicação que se desenvolveu entre pessoas que não partilham uma língua comum, mas que querem falar umas com as outras, por razões comerciais ou outras. Os pidgins têm sido designados por línguas "improvisadas", "marginais" ou "mistas".
They have a limited vocabulary, a reduced grammatical structure, and a much narrower range of functions, compared to the languages which gave rise to them. They are the native language of no one, but they are nonetheless a main means of communication for millions of people, and a major focus of interest to those who study the way languages change.
Têm um vocabulário limitado, uma estrutura gramatical reduzida e um leque de funções muito mais restrito do que as línguas que lhes deram origem. Não são a língua materna de ninguém, mas são, no entanto, o principal meio de comunicação de milhões de pessoas e um importante foco de interesse para aqueles que estudam a forma como as línguas mudam.
It is essential to avoid the stereotype of a pidgin language, as perpetrated over the years in generations of children’s comics and films. The ‘Me Tarzan, you Jane’ image is far from the reality. A pidgin is not a language which has broken down; nor is it the result of baby talk, laziness, corruption, primitive thought processes, or mental deficiency.
É essencial evitar o estereótipo de uma língua pidgin, tal como foi perpetrado ao longo dos anos em gerações de banda desenhada e filmes para crianças. A imagem "Eu Tarzan, tu Jane" está longe de ser a realidade. Um pidgin não é uma língua que se tenha decomposto; nem é o resultado de conversa de bebé, preguiça, corrupção, processos de pensamento primitivos ou deficiência mental.
On the contrary: pidgins are demonstrably creative adaptations of natural languages, with a structure and rules of their own. Along with creoles, they are evidence of a fundamental process of linguistic change, as languages come into contact with each other, producing new varieties whose structures and uses contract and expand.
Pelo contrário: os pidgins são adaptações comprovadamente criativas das línguas naturais, com uma estrutura e regras próprias. Juntamente com os crioulos, são a prova de um processo fundamental de mudança linguística, quando as línguas entram em contacto umas com as outras, produzindo novas variedades cujas estruturas e usos se contraem e expandem.
They provide the clearest evidence of language being created and shaped by society for its own ends, as people adapt to new social circumstances. This emphasis on processes of change is reflected in the terms pidginization and creolization.
São a prova mais clara de que a língua é criada e moldada pela sociedade para os seus próprios fins, à medida que as pessoas se adaptam a novas circunstâncias sociais. Esta ênfase nos processos de mudança reflecte-se nos termos pidginização e crioulização.

Most pidgins are based on European languages – English, French, Spanish, Dutch, and Portuguese – reflecting the history of colonialism. However, this observation may be the result only of our ignorance of the languages used in parts of Africa, South America, or South-east Asia, where situations of language contact are frequent.
A maioria dos pidgins baseia-se em línguas europeias - inglês, francês, espanhol, holandês e português - reflectindo a história do colonialismo. No entanto, esta observação pode ser apenas o resultado da nossa ignorância das línguas utilizadas em partes de África, da América do Sul ou do Sudeste Asiático, onde são frequentes as situações de contacto linguístico.
One of the best-known non-European pidgins is Chinook Jargon, once used for trading by American Indians in north-west USA. Another is Sango, a pidginized variety of Ngbandi, spoken widely in west-central Africa.
Um dos pidgins não europeus mais conhecidos é o Chinook Jargon, outrora utilizado para o comércio pelos índios americanos no noroeste dos EUA. Outro é o Sango, uma variedade pidginizada do Ngbandi, falado em grande escala na África centro-ocidental.

Because of their limited function, pidgin languages usually do not last for very long – sometimes for only a few years, and rarely for more than a century. They die when the original reason for communication diminishes or disappears, as communities move apart, or one community learns the language of the other. (Alternatively, the pidgin may develop into a creole.)
Devido à sua função limitada, as línguas pidgin não duram normalmente muito tempo - por vezes apenas alguns anos e raramente mais de um século. Morrem quando a razão original da comunicação diminui ou desaparece, quando as comunidades se afastam ou quando uma comunidade aprende a língua da outra. comunidades se afastam ou uma comunidade aprende a língua da outra. (Em alternativa, o pidgin pode evoluir para um crioulo).
The pidgin French which was used in Vietnam all but disappeared when the French left; similarly, the pidgin English which appeared during the American Vietnam campaign virtually disappeared as soon as the war was over. But there are exceptions. The pidgin known as Mediterranean Lingua Franca, or Sabir, began in the Middle Ages and lasted until the 20th century.
O pidgin francês que era utilizado no Vietname praticamente desapareceu quando os franceses partiram; do mesmo modo, o pidgin inglês que surgiu durante a campanha americana no Vietname praticamente desapareceu assim que a guerra terminou. Mas há excepções. O pidgin conhecido como Mediterranean Lingua Franca, ou Sabir, começou na Idade Média e durou até ao século XX.

Some pidgins have become so useful as a means of communication between languages that they have developed a more formal role, as regular auxiliary languages. They may even be given official status by a community, as lingua francas.
Alguns pidgins tornaram-se tão úteis como meio de comunicação entre línguas que desenvolveram um papel mais formal, como línguas auxiliares regulares. Podem mesmo ser considerados oficiais por uma comunidade, como línguas francas.
These cases are known as ‘expanded pidgins’, because of the way in which they have added extra forms to cope with the needs of their users, and have come to be used in a much wider range of situations than previously. In time, these languages may come to be used on the radio, in the press, and may even develop a literature of their own.
Estes casos são conhecidos como "pidgins expandidos", devido à forma como acrescentaram formas adicionais para responder às necessidades dos seus utilizadores e passaram a ser utilizados numa gama muito mais vasta de situações do que anteriormente. Com o tempo, estas línguas podem vir a ser utilizadas na rádio, na imprensa e podem mesmo desenvolver uma literatura própria.
Some of the most widely used expanded pidgins are Krio (in Sierra Leone), Nigerian Pidgin English, and Bislama (in Vanuatu). In Papua New Guinea, the local pidgin (Tok Pisin) is the most widely used language in the country.
Alguns dos pidgins expandidos mais utilizados são o Krio (na Serra Leoa), o inglês pidgin nigeriano e o Bislama (em Vanuatu). Na Papua Nova Guiné, o pidgin local (Tok Pisin) é a língua mais utilizada no país.
